This is not a hard game to play.  There are no mazes or monsters
in it.  You can't be killed. It is not tricky.

Nevetherless, this game is still challenging--even to an adult.
The goal is simple. You are to collect as many Easter Eggs as
possible.  You score one point for each egg.  If you collect all 
12 eggs and bring them to the secret door without loosing any 
eggs only then will you be able to open the secret door and win 
the game.  This isn't easy.

The available moves are clearly marked in the description. If
a direction like NORTH is in bold print then you can go it that
direction.  Otherwise you can't. Some doors are locked.  Each
lock has a key.  The key and the matching lock are the same
color. There is no limit to what you can carry.  Pick up
every key or toy that you can.  It may be useful.

To open a door that is locked type:
              Unlock door with red key
                       then
                     Open Door
After you have opened a door you should always look.

To look at an object type:
           Look at object or Examine object

To get an object type:
                   Get object
   (Get Red Egg is right.  Get Red Easter Egg is wrong.)

Alan will only show up if you have eggs.  This is important.
To get all the eggs the strategy is to get the keys, locate all 
the eggs and toys and then collect them as fast as possible

To get rid of Alan type:
          Give toy to bink or Give egg to bink


It is easiest to use the function keys for the common 
commands like LOOK and abbreviations for directions
like N for North.  This way you will not mis-spell a
command and have to re-type it.  In fact, it is best to
label the keys so you won't forget.


To get an inventory of what you are carrying either type
inventory or use the F7 key.  To see your score use the F10
key.

Use the SAVE command to keep your game.


The layout of the House (except for the hidden door)
follows. You should print it out.
